I'll try and remember tonight. Now, I never ran the OEM bulbs in these projectors but with HIDs in them I don't think they compare to the OEM housings/lighting. I'll get one at night.
They look great, man! I got the same ones from eBay vendor racing_guys. They arrived in a couple of days and I went straight into installing them. I was surprised by the fitment. I was a little skeptical buying cheap aftermarket headlights but boy they fit PERFECTLY! They look amazing. Here's a...
Thanks guys! ran, you have a pic so I can see what you mean? You mean the sectioned off piece at the bottom of the front bumper? I've seen that painted black before on instagram and I thought it looked nice.

Next on the list is a roof rack so I can mount my spare up there (definitely doesn't fit under the vehicle) and then some light bars, big and small. Perimeter lights for sure. After that... maybe I'll start figuring out a supercharger build.
Thanks! Your build is much of my inspiration! ...and this guy abecker_89 on Instagram. Running the same black, steel, D-window wheels I ran on all of my Wranglers on the Runner thanks to him. His specs are on point. :bigok:

As far as the BHLM; I went ahead and took down the front bumper cover. I wanted to do a nice, clean tuck-away job of the ballasts of the HID kits. As per usual I use industrial strength Velcro from Walmart to mount them. This stuff is TOUGH. Ran it on multiple motorcycles and cars in the past...
I also went ahead and replaced every bulb with its LED counterpart. Interior, reverse lights, tag lights... did NOT do the dash lights and the very complex ones though. I also followed an easy write-up on doing the fog light mod as it drove me NUTS that I couldn't run my fogs without the...

So, when my mother passed she left me her 2006 4Runner, SR5 (XSP for those who know what that is). It's 2WD and while I wasn't stoked to own it (I owned a 2006 S2000 and '94 YJ Wrangler) it was nice to have a comfortable SUV to drive around. My S2000 was on the floor and my...
